QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 11:46 AM) I just wish people would stop this fiction of Ross Gload as a good defensive player... He's below average at worst, mediocorely average at his best... However i'm not against calling him up to platoon in the DH role or play 1B if Paulie really needs a day off... He's actually a very good defensive first baseman, one bad play doesn't change that.......

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Aug 22, 2005 -> 10:43 PM) Did the fact that I am a JUNIOR in HIGH SCHOOL get lost somewhere in this thread or what? Well, I was talking to pauly when I said have fun senior year. Anyways, you should loosen up a bit but if that's how you want to be, more power to you. Just remember you'll be going away in a few years and all your close friends are probably going off to different schools so have some fun and don't just think about school the whole time.

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Aug 22, 2005 -> 10:33 PM) I'm a little late coming into this conversation but, recently 2 of my best friends left for college. Guys that were there with me throughout my 3 years in high school. It really got me thinking about my future and how much the social part of high school means to me. Now, as Senior, I realize that I want to make the best out of this last year with my friends. Because who knows what's going to happen in the future. SF1, I think you may have your priorities in line to a certain extent, but hell, these are the years where it's ok to screw up once in awhile and to do things you probably arent supposed to do. Yes, it's great that you picked your major, etc. But, it will probably change and right now, IMO, you need to focus on making the best of high school and having fun. Great f***in post. I just started college this week and I had to leave all my friends as my best friends are all going to different colleges. Enjoy you're senior year, I had an absolute blast last year during my senior year. I screwed off a ton, a little to much but it didn't kill me. Have fun, don't f***in worry about your career yet.

If we make the playoffs do the first 10,000 fans get rally panties at the first game?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 12:42 AM) It was a tough call. I liked Broadway because of his better K/BB ratio, but Carrillo was also playing in a tougher conference. I already know, however, that there are several people who are going to be saying, "I knew they should've taken Carrillo -- I called it that day!!!!", when/if Carrillo makes the bigs before Broadway does. Like I said, Broadway is actually doing about the same (arguably better) than Carrillo did in his short time at high-A. Both of them look like real good picks right about now, and I'd be happy to have either. Carillo is the guy I wanted when the draft came along, however I can't complain about Broadway at all, looks like a solid pick so far.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 01:52 AM) I read a couple of remarks in PHT that he didn't look very good at all. Maybe it was 1st game jitters. He looked good and bad. He did K twice but he did have some very nice ab's. In the 7th for his first hit, he took a breaking ball low and away went and got it and stroked it into left field. He hit an absolute bullet in the 10th or 11th or 12th or 13th I can't remember which inning. Then in one of the other extra innings he hit the ball into the hole between 3rd and short for a base hit. By the way he can really run, I'm not sure if you guys could see him run on T.V. but when Timo hit that gapper Brian absolutely exploded around the bases, I knew he was fast but he was absolutely flying around the bases, very impressive speed.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Aug 17, 2005 -> 12:56 AM) In general, that's a good philosophy. Because they are less likely to go opposite field to tie the game on a HR. Depends on the guy though obviously, and where he's looking for the pitch. Many times catchers can notice if a batter is looking out or in, s*** like that. But yeah, probly should have stayed away on 2-2. 3-2 you just need to bring a strike, out in or wherever. Where were you sitting tonight krush?

Timo's leading off again. Anderson is also in the lineup tonight hitting 9th and playing right. This is my last game before I go to school

QUOTE(SpringfieldFan @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 09:47 AM) I am probably the only one who can say this, but I always preferred the "other" girl in the show Smallville. SFF I like Kreuk better but the other one ain't bad either imo.

Whoever made that Chaveztalk.com banner needs to make a Griffeytalk.com one

Here's how I hope they end this feud: They see each other somewhere, Hawk throws one punch, Mariotti is on the ground, game over.

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 10:40 AM) "A shot on elobe THE BULLS WIN" You botched that call so badly.

So the real question is should I pick up Thomas Jones for my fantasy team as a backup?

I loved her back in the saved by the bell days. Nothing to be an embarrased about here but just thought this pic had to be posted.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 09:44 PM) ABC Family Boy meets world, step by step, and full house. You can't beat that. Really the only other shows I watch are reruns of Fresh Prince and Saved by the Bell, the only new show I watch is the Shield. I love that show.

All I drink is pop basically. I think if you took coke away from me for an extended period of time I'd have withdrawal.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 01:15 PM) i've had this argument before. topanga does nothing for me, but some for others I liked her when they were about sophomores/juniors in high school. Then she just got fat and didn't look good anymore, imo.

Have a good one.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 01:45 AM) I'm gonna give this about as much of a chance of happening as the Aubrey Huff trade. You told me we were going to trade for Aubrey, in fact you just about guaranteed it to me.

I say no. Why? Because it's to damn good to be true, stupid reason I know but I just can't see it happening.

Wes's line tonight: 6IP, 1ER, 3BB's and 7K's

We don't have to many options in the 1 or 2 holes without Scotty and Gooch. Unfortunately games like tonight are probably going to happen a lot until Scott gets back.

That's right Dam, shut me the f*** up.

I got money on a walk.
